Snap to Grid

or out.)

Convert from 5.3.1 to 6.0

"Undo" doesn't take this operation into account, so you won't want to save unless you're satisfied with the changes.

About NetLogo 6.0.4…

Information on the current NetLogo version you are running. On a
Mac, this menu item is on the NetLogo menu instead.

and “Code”. Only one tab at a time can be visible, but you can switch between
them by clicking on the tabs at the top of the window.

Right below the row of tabs is a toolbar containing a row of controls. The
controls available vary from tab to tab.
